World History (Daily Warm-Ups, Level 2)

Sample questions: What characteristics of a river valley civilization developed in the Shang dynasty? What goods moved along the Silk Road? Who signed the Magna Carta? Who were the original ''Young Turks''? What was the outcome of the Wannsee Conference? Other questions involve true/false responses, matching, or ranking events in chronological order. Grades 9-12.
